Triplets: Daddy, Please Pamper Us Lightly

Chapter 22: Chapter 22: Forced to Live Off Someone Else’s Means_1 Chapter 22: Chapter 22: Forced to Live Off Someone Else’s Means_1 The next day.

Sunlight passed through the curtains, painting the light-colored wooden floor.

The girl drowsily rolled over in bed, her eyes half shut. When she came across an oversized pillow, her face subconsciously snuggled against it.

As the warm sensations touched her skin, her eyes shot open.

Sharp brows, sparkling eyes, prominent nose, a handsome and aloof face loomed in front of her.

Yan Ling’s murky mind suddenly cleared up.

She lifted the blanket and, upon discovering that her clothes had been completely changed, she was completely dumbfounded.

What was going on?

Had she escaped from the wolves’ den only to wander into the tiger’s den?

Yan Ling rubbed her temples, and as her headache eased slightly, her rationality returned.

Although her body was a little sore, it was more like the aftereffects of a cold.

There were no discomforts elsewhere, which meant that nothing happened between them last night.

Breathing a sigh of relief, Yan Ling cautiously slid out of bed.

Despite her utmost caution, the lightly sleeping Qi Yunjue stirred to wakefulness.

The moment their eyes met, the atmosphere immediately became awkward.

“G…Good morning!” Upon recovering her bearings, Yan Ling greeted him optfully.

Qi Yunjue did not respond. He slowly sat up and buttoned up his slightly open shirt with a serene expression.

Yan Ling’s sight was sharp, and she noticed a bruise on the man’s collarbone.

That bruise looked like it had been freshly bit by a beast or a pet!

Wait…

Could she be that beast?

Yan Ling’s eyes widened. Excusing the bite marks on his neck and the back of his hand, she was almost on the verge of tears.

She vaguely remembered having a dream last night.

In that dream, she hugged a handsome man, biting him and insisting that he accompany her for a romantic bath…

No, that lascivious woman could not be her.

She must have been possessed last night!

Thinking about her wild actions from the previous night,
Yan Ling’s face grew hotter by the second.

At that moment, the man leisurely buttoned his shirt collar, grabbed the crumpled suit, and walked up to her.

He was tall and his aura exuded a chill of nobility, like a reversed light god walking towards her.

Seeing his handsome face getting closer, Yan Ling nervously swallowed her saliva and quickly apologized, “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to take advantage of you last night, I…”

“It’s okay, you’ll have to get used to it anyway!”

Yan Ling…

What did he mean she would have to get used to it?

It wasn’t like she’d do such embarrassing things all the time!

Wait, she and him were just a “fake husband and wife.”

What was this talk about the future?

Yan Ling abruptly sensed that something was wrong, and she asked him, “How did you know where I live?”

She remembered having never told him the location of her home.

How did he find out?

Also, wasn’t he a poor man who could not afford to eat?

How did he afford to go to the Huayang Bar?

Furthermore, how had he managed to bring her back safely from Young Master Yang, who had boasted about his position and authority?

The more she thought about it, the more mysterious the man in front of her seemed.

However, the man seemed to have anticipated her thoughts and said resignedly, “When we got our marriage certificate, you wrote down your home address.”

Yan Ling paused for a moment, but then quickly recovered and probed again, “How did you manage to rescue me from that scoundrel?”

Qi Yunjue: “The bar had security guards.”

Yan Ling showed a look of sudden understanding.

She had heard that the Huayang Bar had a deep background, so for the sake of its reputation, it was plausible to say they may have stalled Young Master Yang.

As for why he was at the bar…

“Anyway, thank you for last night. As a doctor, I have a wide network of social connections. If you’re interested in meeting any person, you can tell me, and I might be able to help.”

Yan Ling thought that men only went to bars at night either to pick up girls or to get picked by girls.

With his looks, the latter seemed the more likely option.

Perhaps she could introduce him to a couple of rich ladies!

So that once their deal ended, he wouldn’t be without a safety net.

What Yan Ling did not know was that the man standing in front of her, whom she considered too poor for sustenance, was actually Qi Yunjue, a towering figure of power and the number one on Asia’s rich list.

Seeing that he had remained silent, she said earnestly, “Living off a woman for the sake of a child isn’t that disgraceful, you shouldn’t be ashamed to admit it.”

Qi Yunjue, who was forced to live off a woman: ….
